How the Media Hides The Truth From Being Told To The Public

Sharyl Attkisson, CBS’s top investigative reporter: gone, resigned,
floating free, unchained, now viewed by the news establishment as an
outsider, a defector, a weirdo with an axe to grind.

Among the controversial stories she covered at CBS: Benghazi. Just as
she was digging below the surface of the Obama coverup, she was cut off
and shut down by her network bosses.

Here’s the crux. The Rhodes brothers.

Ben Rhodes, David Rhodes.

Ben is a deputy national security advisor to Obama
and writes speeches for him. In September 2012, Ben was “instrumental,”
according to ABC News, in changing the White House talking points (the
story) on what happened in Benghazi.

Ben’s brother, David, is president of CBS News. Attkisson was working
for David. She was investigating all the changes (12) in the Benghazi
talking points. She was shut down.

Nothing to see there, move along, eyes straight ahead, go back to sleep,
zombie-zombie, it’s all good don’t worry, be happy, hope and change,
the audacity of whatever.

Now, on top of this, Attkisson’s computers, at work and at home, were
hacked while she was still at CBS. The network acknowledged this and
said “they were investigating.” They’re still investigating. So are
other unnamed entities.

Who hacked her computers? CBS? The White House? NSA?

Attkisson
covered other stories at CBS that were highly problematic for the White
House. Fast&Furious, for example. And in the summer of 2009,
Attkisson struck gold on Swine Flu. You know, the pandemic that wasn’t.
She discovered that the CDC, which is tasked with tracking numbers of
cases of outbreaks, had, get this, stopped counting Swine Flu cases in
America. Stopped.

But the CDC was still trumpeting the extreme danger of Swine Flu, with no way to measure its true impact.

Dr. Peter Doshi, long after the whole Swine Flu dud was over, wrote a
stunning report for the British Medical Journal Online. Seems that every
year, hundreds of thousands of samples from suspected and diagnosed flu
patients are sent to labs for analysis—and only about 16% of these
samples turn out to be positive for the flu.

That’s a killer of a revelation. Among other things, it means that most
people who are told they have the flu couldn’t possibly have been
protected by any flu vaccine, even assuming the vaccines are useful and
effective…because these people don’t have the flu.

I wrote Attkisson about Dr. Doshi’s finding, and she got back to me, in
essence saying, well, yes, this is why the CDC stopped counting Swine
Flu cases.

Huge numbers of people who were being diagnosed with Swine Flu didn’t have any kind of flu at all.

CBS shut down Attkisson on both the Fast&Furious story and the Swine Flu story.

Here’s an interesting bombshell. On April 1, 2011, Attkisson authored a
piece for CBS News, “Vaccines and Autism: a new scientific review.” She
dispelled the notion that the vaccine-autism connection was a dead
issue. All sorts of red flags went up the flagpole. Mainstream media are
supposed to treat vaccines, all vaccines, as holy sacraments of the
medical cartel. Praise them, bow down to them, never accuse them of
doing harm of any kind.

Sumner Redstone, the executive chairman of CBS, Attkisson’s employer,
has a very significant stake in vaccines. His Foundation, on its site,
states: “The Sumner M. Redstone Foundation’s contribution to the Global
Poverty Project raising $118 million in pledges for vaccines…”

Redstone’s Foundation has also donated $1 million to a charity called
Autism Speaks, which supports genetic testing for the diagnosis of
Autism. You can be sure this charity has zero interest in reviving the
vaccine-Autism debate and exposing the fact that there is most
definitely a connection.

So Attkisson was stepping on Sumner Redstone’s toes with heavy boots.

Attkisson is now writing a book about her career. When published, it’ll
land in the mainstream news cycle for a week or two at the most. Doesn’t
matter how explosive its revelations are. She’s an outsider now. She
isn’t in the loop. She isn’t playing the game according to the rules.

However, if Attkisson is angling for a new job at, say, FOX, or even
CNN, whose ratings have gone down the toilet, she’ll have to pull her
punches. Every major news outlet sits on its own reporters and gags them
when things get too hot.

The first casualty in mainstream news is the truth.
